Description: Jacqueline Scott, Professor of Sociology, in conversation with Gaby Hinsliff, author of Half a Wife
Despite much progress in the world of work, women are still often held back by carrying the domestic burden and effectively doing a double shift. However, research shows that greater equality in the home and workplace makes both sexes happier. Nevertheless, many organisations still make decisions that challenge or reinforce traditional ideas about what men and women can or cannot do. If these decisions are not joined up it can limit real gender equality overall.
